COOL-FIT ABS SystemCorrosion resistance and efficiency make this pre-insulated system ideal for secondary cooling systems.
COOL-FIT ABS is a completely pre-insulated plastic pipe system for secondary cooling and refrigeration systems operated
with brine or glycol solutions. The system is based on proven and cold-shock resistant ABS pipes and fittings, which are
insulated with high-quality PUR foam in addition to a robust and UV-resistant outer pipe. The smooth inner surface of the
ABS pipe provides for minimal pressure loss, while the low thermal conductivity of plastic and the insulation ensure low
energy and running costs for a lifetime. The 3-in-1 construction also reduces installation time to a minimum. COOL-FIT is
ideal for use in cold storage, in food and beverage production (e.g. in breweries, dairies, slaughterhouses), in supermar-
kets as well as for process cooling in industrial cooling water systems or in data centers.
Safety = No corrosion
Simplicity = Fast connections, easy suspension
Efficiency = Excellent insulating properties, low operating and energy costs
Environment = Low CO2 emissions

The name Georg Fischer stands for reliability and durability - and has done so for over 200 years. We develop and manu-
facture pipes, fittings, manual and actuated valves, measurement and control equipment, as well as jointing technology.
We guarantee the best quality, state-of-the-art products and unique features. Being a system provider, we are able to put
together the perfect solution for our customers' individual needs. Our Customizing Teams will also manufacture piping
components on request, tailor-made to customer specifications - in small series or one-off production.
A symbiosis of ecological and econo-
mical benefits: COOL-FIT
COOL-FIT is used exclusively in sec-
ondary cooling systems. The amount
of refrigerant can be reduced in this
type of installation by 80 to 90 percent
compared to conventional systems.
COOL-FIT thus achieves a TEWI (Total
Equivalent Warming Impact) value
which is 50 percent superior to other
existing systems.
Compelling energy-saving
arguments
The system has clear advantages
over traditional metal pipe systems in
terms of energy consumption and re-
source conservation. This pertains to
production and use by the customer.
Practically maintenance-free
The functionality of the piping is not
impaired in any way by either corro-
sion or lime deposits; the pipes there-
fore remain virtually maintenance-
free throughout their entire service
life.
Energy efficiency
A completely pre-insulated system
helps our customers save even
more energy. The low lambda value
translates into high energy efficiency.
COOL-FIT uses approximately 50
percent less energy in operation than
conventional copper systems.
Online CO2 calculator
We attach great importance to energy
efficiency and reducing water con-
sumption in the manufacture and use
of our products. Sustainability is also
supported by the durability, perma-
nent availability and large assort-
ment of our products. We invite you to

Everything from one sourceFrom planning to installation - we have all the products and systems you need for your applications.
Environmental compatibility
We act and think sustainably. Georg Fischer uses natural resources sparingly
and continually strives to optimize the life cycle assessment.

Jointing technologyCustomers profit by the fast, sturdy and efficient jointing of COOL-FIT ABS.
GF Piping Systems has invested considerably in developing the ideal jointing technologies for special applications and
materials. With the COOL-FIT nipple no peeling of the polyurethane insulation or subsequent insulating on site is required.
In addition to sophisticated and successful product ranges and systems, we offer a service package with planning tools,
accessories, training, tools and high performance logistics. Our specialist teams around the world are available to assist
you.

Jointing technology
CAD library
GF Piping Systems' most popular
planning tool, the CAD library, contains
over 30 000 drawings and technical de-
tails, available online or as DVD. Easy
integration in CAD drawings.
Tried and tested
COOL-FIT is joined quickly and safely.
The solvent cement jointing method
saves considerable time compared to
the welding of metal pipes.
Inner nipple connector
With the COOL-FIT nipple, no PUR
insulation needs to be removed. An
integrated pipe stop creates a gap for
visual inspection. The gap is sealed
afterwards and is water and vapor-
tight.
Connection to metal components
The latest generation of transition
fittings with integrated O-ring seal has
been specially designed for cooling
applications with large temperature
fluctuations.

System specificationsLower operating costs and higher energy efficiency with COOL-FIT ABS for secondary cooling systems.
Application limits for water and water-soluble glycol
The data given is based on 25-year values.
COOL-FIT ABS from GF Piping Systems is a special secondary piping system that meets the high requirements of end users
and plant engineers. COOL-FIT ABS pipes are resistant to oxygen diffusion and corrosion, so a long service life is guaranteed.
In secondary cooling applications COOL-FIT ABS exhibits high energy efficiency (low lambda value) and is practically
maintenance-free throughout its entire lifetime. It is also robust and easy to work with on building sites - even under difficult
conditions. All in all, COOL-FIT ABS pipes are easier and faster to install than metal pipes, and this naturally reduces costs
for our customers.
Specifications
The pre-insulated ABS pipe and fitting components comply
with the following guidelines and norms:

Example applicationCOOL-FIT ABS scores with a reduction in weight, easier suspension and longer service life.
Cooling system - primary cooling
circuit
The cooling system was constructed
as a coolant system. In the primary
cold production, ammonia (NH3), a
natural primary coolant, was used.
NH3 has neither global warming
potential (GWP) nor ozone depleting
potential (ODP).
In other words, ammonia (NH3) does
not fall under the EU F-Gas regula-
State-of-the-art cooling logistics
The warehouse of a wholesaler was
designed according to the latest tech-
nical know-how.
The goal was to realize an environ-
mentally friendly and sustainable
overall refrigeration concept, thus
enabling long-term and reliable op-
eration of the cooling system with low
energy consumption.

In selecting a suitable piping system to carry the coolant in a long-lasting and
dependable cooling system in a warehouse for fruit and vegetable storage,
special attention was dedicated to durability, efficiency, low weight and ease of
installation.
tion (EC no. 842/2006) and therefore
complies with the environmental
specifications for this plant. Ammonia
is also very energy efficient.
Cooling system - secondary cooling
circuit
COOL-FIT ABS is used in the second-
ary cooling circuit, where food-safe
propylene glycol is circulated as the
coolant.
Plant engineers require specialized
know-how
COOL-FIT is joined using the proven
solvent cement jointing method,
which is easy and safe to work with.
In spite of this, building a large re-
frigeration plant is a challenge even
for experienced plant engineers.
Having well-trained and qualified
staff is therefore important in order
to guarantee a good installation. For
this reason, installation personnel
was trained in the handling of pre-
insulated plastic pipe systems at the
GF Piping Systems Training Center
prior to on-site construction.
